feat(web): merge the comment and review buttons into one composer - #12945
Conversation
The Code tab floated two controls in the same corner: a Review pill and a round comment bubble. They looked alike, sat one beside the other, and each opened its own box, so the offer read as the same thing twice. One floating composer now holds both. It opens on the mode with work waiting in it — the review when line comments are pending, the comment box otherwise — and a segmented toggle switches between them where the host offers both. The drafts stay separate because they go to separate places: a review summary is not a pull request comment. The composer moves up to the detail panel, so a verdict can be sent from any tab instead of only from the diff. PullRequestCommentComposer and PullRequestReviewBar keep their behavior as the two panes, renamed PullRequestCommentForm and PullRequestReviewForm.

ApprovabilityVerdict: Not approved Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This PR substantially changes the pull-request commenting and review workflow by replacing separate controls with a shared composer, moving review submission across tabs, and selecting a default mode based on pending work. The new state coordination and product-default behavior warrant human validation. You can add or adjust custom eligibility rules. Learn more. |
Switching Comment/Review unmounted the pane being left. That threw away a comment draft on every toggle, and reset the submit guard of a form whose request was still running, which was enough to send the same review twice. The inactive pane is hidden instead of unmounted, so both keep their own state and their own in-flight guard. Each pane owns a textarea ref now, and the popover focuses whichever one it opens on.

The merged trigger carried a text label that changed between "Comment" and "Review" with the draft's state. It read as a second, competing action beside the one the popover already names, and it moved the button's width around as line comments came and went. The trigger is the round icon button again. The pending count is a badge on its corner, matching the one the right panel already uses, and the count moves into the aria-label so it is not lost with the text.
The composer chose its opening mode from the line comment count alone. A summary typed and left unsent outlives the popover in the review store, so reopening dropped the reader on the comment box with their own unsent review hidden behind the toggle. The summary now counts toward that choice, and toward the trigger's label. The badge still counts line comments only, because it is a count. The summary is selected as a boolean so typing one does not re-render the composer on every keystroke.
The pane opened with "1 comment pending" beside a Discard button. The count was already on the composer's trigger badge and on its Review toggle, so the line said a third time what two controls in view were saying, and it pushed the summary box down to do it. Discard goes with it. Every pending card carries its own delete control in the diff, which is where a reader is looking when they change their mind about one.

Pushed the requested follow-up in 31f0c31: matching composer sizing and a review verdict selector with one submit button. Targeted lint, 32 existing tests, and the web typecheck passed. This review comment is submitted through the updated T3 composer to verify the real GitHub submission path. CI and final review are still in progress.

The follow-up preserves drafts across dismissal and restores pending-comment discard. The final review fix disables discard while submission is in flight. Targeted lint and web typecheck passed.

The pull request detail panel now has one floating composer for comments and reviews, available from Summary, Timeline, and Code. Its Comment / Review toggle preserves separate drafts and opens on pending review work. Review mode offers Comment, Approve, and Request changes through a verdict selector and one Submit review button, filtered by host capabilities and permissions.
Both textareas use the same default size and three rows, removing the 4 px height jump between empty modes. Closing the popover preserves comment drafts and in-flight submission guards. Review mode restores bulk discard for pending line comments, including drafts whose files disappeared; discard is disabled while a review is submitting. Existing close/reopen comment actions and provider validation remain in place.
Verification: Targeted lint, 32 existing detail-panel and review-store tests, and web typecheck passed. In the shared dev client against the real GitHub PR, checked verdict selection, submit eligibility, draft preservation, and matching composer heights at desktop and narrow widths in dark and light themes. Submitted the follow-up status as a Comment review through the actual client and GitHub provider; confirmed it appeared on GitHub and the composer closed on success. Approve and Request changes selection/eligibility were checked without posting those verdicts. A locally seeded stale line draft verified bulk discard without losing the summary. Holding an actual outgoing Comment review request verified disabled discard during submission; releasing it posted through GitHub, re-enabled discard, and preserved a local draft added after the submitted snapshot.
Before: separate comment and review controls.
After: one composer with verdict selection and preserved drafts.
Initial implementation by Bil0000 with Claude Opus 5 in T3 Code through Claude Code. Follow-up by Maria with gpt-6-astra in T3 Code through Codex.
